Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

Spinal arachnoid web (SAW) is a rare condition characterized by focal thickening of the arachnoid membrane causing displacement and compression of the spinal cord with progressive symptoms and neurological deficits. Recent reports and clinical experience suggest that SAW is a distinct entity with specific radiological findings and treatment strategies distinguishable from other arachnopathies and potential differential diagnoses.
